Each year, approximately 360 Stamps Scholarship recipients join our diverse and talented community. Through partnerships with institutions across the nation (and into the U.K.), Scholars receive annual awards that range from $6,000 to $90,000 (four-year awards total an average of $24,000-$360,000) with additional funds for enrichment activities such as study abroad, academic conferences, and leadership training.
We are an internationally-prestigious merit-based scholarship program and community that helps exceptional students become meaningful leaders throughout society. The first Stamps Scholars programs launched in 2006 at Georgia Tech and the University of Michigan. The program has since grown
to 36 colleges and universities with 3,256 current and alumni Scholars.
